The Black Excel website has "distinguished itself as one of the most popular sites in its category." - Snap Directory Team. We've been a "Top 10" BET pick, and called one of the "top 25 educational web sites" in the nation (I-WAY magazine).
Our resource materials have been used by over 500 college websites.

Management at Black Excel has decided to not print a Black College Tour list
this year. Weather/airline concerns have impacted on recruitment issues in
many cases. Please review old listings at this site to contact/inquire about
the availability of scheduled tours. As you will see a majority of tours are annual
events, and you can easily check with tour directors/websites for updates. Good luck. --Isaac Black, Founder, 2014.

Since
its founding in 1988, BLACK EXCEL has helped young people and their parents
all across the country to navigate the difficult college admission process.
We have tried to make the way easy and accessible. As a result, we are
happy to say that we have helped hundreds of African Americans get into
college who might otherwise not have done so.

Students we have counseled
have gained entry to over a hundred differentcolleges.
Here's a gateway to (New)U.S.
States Colleges and Universities and (New)Historically
Black Colleges.Our "accept"
lists comprise an honor roll of schools, touching every level of
excellence and entrance difficulty. Whether a student was looking to Spelman,
Yale, Hampton, Boston College or a lesser known school, we knew how to
help. As a result, scores of our children are now looking to brighter
futures. Some are already in law, medical and graduate schools.

Right from the beginning,
parents asked us for scholarship help. Nearly all were concerned about
how to finance their children's higher education. BLACK EXCEL got busy
creating our first Scholarship List. Not only did students and parents
request the List. Libraries, colleges, high schools, churches, and other
organizations did so as well. Write-ups about BLACK EXCEL began to appear
in Black Collegian, Career Focus, College Preview,Emerge Magazine
(Sept. '96), the Chicago Tribune...and other magazines and newspapers.
BLACK EXCEL has been spotlighted in a book by Dr. Hartman of the College
Board and by Netbooks (the college edition).

We have been consulted
by US News & World Report, as well as by top college-help organizations
and experts for our input.

Our scholarship list
has been called "the most comprehensive" available for Black students.

BLACK EXCEL services
have expanded over the years to include an updated 350+ Scholarship List;
a personalized College Help Package; a quarterly newsletter; a reference
guide to 143 Historically Black Colleges, detailed profiles of individual
schools (see below); and a Medical School Help Package. For more information
